Fantasy: I'm in a discarded alchemy room, but I can turn trash into treasure!

As soon as Sikong Liechuan finished speaking, Sikong Henian removed his hand from his eyes.

His left eye was so swollen he couldn't open it, and blood was still dripping from his nose onto his beard.

As an elder of the Sikong clan, he had lived for hundreds of years and had never been slapped in the face like that before.

What angered him even more was that the person who made the move was only at the Foundation Establishment stage.

Sikong Henian stared at Qin Mo, the clan elder token in his hand slowly lighting up.

The lightning patterns on both sides of the stone corridor were drawn together, and continuous rumbling sounds came from the ground.

Qin Mo did not rush to make a move.

With his Qiankun Dharma Eye scanning the surroundings, he quickly discovered that although the seven black array nails suppressed the Thunder Chamber array, they did not sever the thunder veins deep within the camp.

This old thing can still mobilize the killing formation in the garrison.

Sikong Henian wiped away the blood from his nose and pressed his fingertip into the token.

"Boy, hand over your protective magic weapon, and I might spare your life."

Qin Mo gripped the broken sword and stood on Sikong Liechuan's back.

"If you want it, take it yourself. Don't just talk the talk."

Sikong Henian's face twitched twice.

The elder's token lit up completely.

Thunder rumbled continuously within the mountain's interior, and dozens of cracks appeared above the stone corridor.

Purple lightning surged from the crack, all converging towards Qin Mo's head.

The surrounding stone walls quickly turned black.

Sikong Liechuan lay on the ground, his body trembling.

Ignoring his broken wrist, he desperately crawled to the side.

This is the ancient method of Lei Ze from the Sikong clan.

By using the local lightning veins as a conduit, the accumulated lightning power within a radius of a hundred miles can be channeled into the killing formation.

If a Golden Core cultivator is hit head-on, his physical body will turn to ashes within a few breaths.

Sikong Henian was usually too reluctant to use it.

Now, in order to kill Qin Mo and seize the treasure, he no longer cares about damaging the Thunder Vein.

The first bolt of purple lightning crashed down.

Qin Mo looked up, but didn't move.

Lightning entered him from the top of his head, passed through his limbs and bones, and finally rushed into his dantian.

His robes billowed from the electric shock, and the stone slabs beneath his feet cracked.

Sikong Henian's right eye was fixed on the center of the lightning.

Qin Mo remained standing.

The second and third bolts of purple lightning struck down in succession.

Purple light filled the stone corridor. Sikong Liechuan had only climbed a few steps when he was struck on the back by scattered arcs of electricity.

When Lei Li drilled into Qin Mo's meridians, the Qiankun Huasheng Furnace started to rotate on its own.

As soon as the raging thunderous energy approached the furnace, it was immediately swept into it.

The ancient patterns on the furnace wall lit up one after another, and the refined Qi of Heaven and Earth surged back into Qin Mo's bones.

The Five Elements Thunder Pattern appeared on Qin Mo's shoulder.

At first there were only a few thin lines.

As the purple lightning continued to fall, the lightning patterns spread outwards along his chest and arms.

The five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth circulate in turn, pressing the remaining lightning power into the flesh and blood.

A series of soft, dense crackling sounds emanated from deep within the bones.

The small amount of Yin energy left over from taking the Nine-Patterned Nether Tribulation Pill was gradually forced out by the purple lightning.

Qin Mo stretched his neck.

This formation is quite powerful.

If he were to strike a few more times, his Five Elements Golden Body would solidify considerably.

Sikong Henian, however, felt more and more uneasy as he looked at it.

The stone slab beneath Qin Mo's feet had turned to dust, and the nearby stone pillars had been shaved in half by the lightning.

But there wasn't a single wound on his body.

Even the lightning energy that had entered Qin Mo's body remained completely still.

What made Sikong Henian's heart tighten even more was that Qin Mo's blood and qi were still increasing.

Sikong Liechuan also saw it.

He raised his blood-stained face, his eyes following the movement of the five elements lightning patterns.

Greed quickly overcame fear.

It can absorb lightning power and also use lightning magic to strengthen its physical body.

Once this treasure falls into the hands of the Sikong clan, all the thunder cultivators within the clan will benefit.

If he were in control, even if Sikong Ji successfully formed his Nascent Soul, he would no longer be able to suppress him.

Sikong Liechuan propped himself up on the ground and sat up.

"Elder, don't stop! The thing on his body is absorbing lightning energy; it must be a top-grade treasure!"

Sikong Henian's breathing became much heavier.

He had only guessed that Qin Mo possessed poison-avoiding treasures and protective magical artifacts.

It now seems that Qin Mo's secrets are even bigger than he had imagined.

Sikong Henian bit his fingertip and smeared the blood on the token.

"Boy, hand over the Thunder-Swallowing Magic Treasure. I can pretend nothing happened tonight."

Qin Mo patted his chest.

"The most valuable thing I have is these bones. If you're so capable, take them away yourself."

After those words, Sikong Henian completely lost his patience.

He formed a hand seal, and a circle of purple light rippled out from beneath his feet.

All the lightning patterns in the stone corridor turned, and even the twelve lightning-patterned wooden pillars in the outer courtyard were affected.

The power accumulated in Lei Muli was forcibly extracted.

Several disciples of the Sikong clan who were unconscious in the outer courtyard were affected, and their clothes were burned through by the electric light on the spot.

Fortunately, they fell far enough away that they weren't hit head-on by the lightning bolt.

The roar subsided once more.

This time, nine bolts of purple lightning struck Qin Mo simultaneously.

Qin Mo's knees sank slightly, but he quickly straightened up again.

The internal furnace of transformation within the body spun even faster.

A suction force was formed at the furnace opening, and the purple lightning that entered the dantian was dragged into the furnace before it could even damage the meridians.

The Qi of Heaven and Earth continues to increase.

The Five Elements Thunder Pattern on Qin Mo's arm was already dazzlingly bright.

With each cycle of Qi and blood circulation, a small amount of impurities in the skin and flesh will be expelled.

He simply stuck the ancient broken sword into the ground and let his arms hang down naturally.

He let the thunder pour down on him.

Sikong Henian thought he was immobilized by the Thunder Law, so he reduced the power of the Thunder Vein into the killing formation by another ten percent.

Qin Mo was waiting for him to do that.

The Heaven and Earth Eye had already passed through the stone corridor and followed the flowing lightning power into the depths of the mountain.

The base's killing formation has a total of twelve nodes.

Eleven of them are connected to the outside thunderwood, and the last one is hidden below the thunder chamber.

Only after all the lightning energy passes through that area will it be distributed into the various array patterns.

That is the true core of the formation.

Qin Mo noted the location but did not immediately break the formation.

Since Sikong Henian was willing to give away Lei Li for free, he naturally wanted to take more.

It's not too late to destroy the array's core after the Five Elements Golden Body has had its fill.

Just then, a loud bang came from the mine room behind them.

The entire stone door bulges outwards.

Through the Qiankun Dharma Eye, Qin Mo saw Sikong Ji sitting cross-legged in the center of the array platform.

The Crimson Phoenix Heart Fruit had already dissolved, and crimson fire essence was flowing through her meridians.

The main thunder marrow hangs above the dantian, constantly pressing down on the golden core.

Cracks have already appeared on the surface of that golden pill.

Outside the higher mountain cliffs, large patches of thunderclouds were gathering.

Purple lightning flashed back and forth through the clouds, and the spiritual energy surrounding the mountains began to surge towards the encampment.

This is a sign of the shattering of the elixir and the formation of the infant.

Sikong Henian also noticed the change.

He turned to look at Lei Shi, and his right eye immediately narrowed.

Can't wait any longer.

Once the heavenly lightning strikes, Sikong Ji will officially enter the Nascent Soul realm.

At that point, let alone seizing the Thunder Vein's origin, he and Sikong Liechuan wouldn't even have a chance to escape.

Sikong Henian grabbed the broken array cone from the ground and charged toward the stone gate again.

Sikong Liechuan also dragged his heavily injured body to his feet, gripped the Thunder Blade tightly in his left hand, and forced out all the medicinal power from his dantian.

Qin Mo stood amidst the rolling purple lightning, his palm resting on the ancient broken sword.

The first clap of thunder came from outside.

Thunder pierced through the mountains, causing the entire encampment to shake.

Inside the Thunder Chamber, Sikong Ji's golden core had cracked open.
